Quantum contextuality turns out to be a necessary resource for universal quantum computation and also has applications in quantum communication. Thus it becomes important to generate contextual sets of arbitrary structure and complexity to…
Development of quantum computation and communication, recently shown to be supported by contextuality, arguably asks for a requisite supply of contextual sets. While that has been achieved in even dimensional spaces, in odd dimensional…
A Kochen-Specker (KS) set is a specific set of projectors and measurement contexts that prove the Bell-Kochen-Specker contextuality theorem. The simplest known KS sets in Hilbert space dimensions $d=3,4,5,6,8$ are reproduced, and several…
As quantum contextuality proves to be a necessary resource for universal quantum computation, we present a general method for vector generation of Kochen-Specker (KS) contextual sets in the form of hypergraphs. The method supersedes all…
Recently, quantum contextuality has been proved to be the source of quantum computation's power. That, together with multiple recent contextual experiments, prompts improving the methods of generation of contextual sets and finding their…
Quantum contextuality turns out to be a necessary resource for universal quantum computation and important in the field of quantum information processing. It is therefore of interest both for theoretical considerations and for experimental…
Quantum contextuality supports quantum computation and communication. One of its main vehicles is hypergraphs. The most elaborated are the Kochen-Specker ones, but there is also another class of contextual sets that are not of this kind.…
In Phys. Rev. Lett. 135, 190203 (2025) a discovery of the simplest 3D contextual set with 33 vertices, 50 bases, and 14 complete bases is claimed. In this paper, we show that it was previously generated in Quantum 7, 953 (2023) and analyze…
We present a systematic, constructive analysis of Kochen-Specker contextuality, emphasizing the foundational importance of complete orthogonal bases (contexts). First, in three dimensions, we generate a complete inventory of 165 rays and…
The challenge of determining bounds for the minimal number of vectors in a three-dimensional Kochen-Specker (KS) set has captivated the quantum foundations community for decades. This paper establishes a weak lower bound of 10 vectors,…
Contextuality is one of the fundamental deviations of quantum mechanics from classical physics. The Kochen-Specker (KS) theorem shows that non-contextual classical physics with hidden variables is inconsistent with the predictions of…
Kochen-Specker (KS) sets are key tools for proving some fundamental results in quantum theory and also have potential applications in quantum information processing. However, so far, their intrinsic complexity has prevented experimentalists…
We find a new highly symmetrical and very numerous class (millions of non-isomorphic sets) of 4-dim Kochen-Specker (KS) vector sets. Due to the nature of their geometrical symmetries, they cannot be obtained from previously known ones. We…
We show that all possible 388 4-dim Kochen-Specker (KS) (vector) sets (of yes-no questions) with 18 through 23 vectors and 844 sets with 24 vectors all with component values from \{-1,0,1\} can be obtained by stripping vectors off a single…
For the first time we construct an infinite family of Kochen-Specker sets in a space of fixed dimension, namely in R^4. While most of the previous constructions of Kochen-Specker sets have been based on computer search, our construction is…
We give a method for exhaustive generation of a huge number of Kochen-Specker contextual sets, based on the 600-cell, for possible experiments and quantum gates. The method is complementary to our previous parity proof generation of these…
A simple three rules supplemented by five steps scheme is proposed to produce Kochen-Specker (KS) sets with 30 rank-2 projectors that occur twice each. The KS sets provide state-independent proof of KS theorem based on a system of three…
Algorithms for finding arbitrary sets of Kochen-Specker (KS) qunits (n-level systems) as well as all the remaining vectors in a space of an arbitrary dimension are presented. The algorithms are based on linear MMP diagrams which generate…
Kochen-Specker (KS) theorem denies the possibility for the noncontextual hidden variable theories to reproduce the predictions of quantum mechanics. A set of projection operators (projectors) and bases used to show the impossibility of…
Recent results show that Kochen-Specker (KS) sets of observables are fundamental to quantum information, computation, and foundations beyond previous expectations. Among KS sets, those that are unique up to unitary transformations (i.e.,…
